Text Edit Documents on iCloud.com?

You can only read them in another Mac with 10.8. iCloud page is for iWork documents, and you need iWork '09 (10.8) or iWork for iOS to use it

You're welcome

once you have a computer with 10.8, how do you see the document on it?

You can open it using TextEdit

is there a menu i'm missing? sorry that i seem a bit ignorant, i've only had mountain lion for a day 🙂

You see a window to open a file when you open it

ah, thanks.

PLEASE, APPLE!! MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO SEE AND EDIT TextEdit DOCUMENTS on an iPad! It is so absurd to be able to have TextEdit Documents on iCloud and not being able to edit them even when having Pages installed on the iOS device... Brrrr!

Make something about it, for Reason Sake!

Thank you (in adavance).

You're not talking to Apple here, just us users like yourself.

This is a great reason to use Google Drive rather than iCloud. Very disappointing. Hopefully with the recent shake-ups at Apple some of this thinking will be reexamined. Some of us only have access to Windows at work, but would still like to be able to access our documents. With Google Drive I can access my documents on EVERY device I own.

Hello,

First of all, "Lanny": There are far more constructive answers than that. Let me thank, for instance, "lingenfr" who shares (with all of us in this conversation) an alternative to Apple's lack of interest on giving TextEdit users the oportunity to enjoy iCloud with OSX's default word processor.

And of course, one also spects people at Apple or nearby (sort of saying) to know what Users think of their strategies.

In other words, I'd really like to know if there are other people missing TextEdit documents to be editable on iPad through iCloud.

Thanks.

Or to be able to save TextEdit docs to Pages format. If you can save TextEdit docs to MS Word formats, why not to Pages format. That way, you could save docs to iCloud and open in Pages on iPad.

Doesn't make sense.

Pages seem to be incompatible with other Apple programs. Ridiculous

Yes "jjsmp", that too. The thing is, Notes is a bit too simple and yet, TextEdit opens real fast and it's very usefull to write preliminary texts that, later on, I might continue on Pages. One other good thing about TextEdit comparted to Notes (which you can sync on your iPad) is that it allows me to take nice formatted notes instead of some kind of "Post-It".

So, may be the solution would be that someone would make an iPad App that would allow TextEdit Users to enjoy continuing their documents on iPad through WebDav (since iCloud is locked for Apple). But then again, If there's someone nearby Apple, please tell them to let TextEdit be part of iCloud.

I agree with "jsanz" when he/she says: "Pages seem to be incompatible with other Apple programs. Ridiculous"
